About TaxGPT

TaxGPT is what it sounds like: a generative-AI copilot built specifically for tax. Ask a complex federal, state, or Canadian tax question and it returns an answer with citations to the underlying authority, drafts tax memos, and auto-writes replies to client emails and IRS or state notices.

Founded in 2023 by Kashif Ali and Isabella Maceda-Ali and backed by Y Combinator with about $5.2M raised, TaxGPT reports 10,000+ CPAs, tax lawyers, and enrolled agents using the professional product, plus consumer and freelancer tiers with a free monthly question allowance.
